Ezekiel 28:4 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 28:4

With thy wisdom and with thy understanding thou hast gotten
thee riches

in great quantities; see ( Revelation 18:3 Revelation 18:17 ) .

3 Behold, thou [art] wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:

4 With thy wisdom and with thy understanding thou hast gained for thee riches, and hast gained gold and silver into thy treasures:

5 By thy great wisdom [and] by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thy heart is lifted up because of thy riches:

6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thy heart as the heart of God;
